Query for the Bored - Eason

Serious Question. Why am I supposed to be excited about an Eason transfers?

History says most transfers are transferring because they weren't good enough to get meaningful time on the team they were playing on. Outside of Russell Wilson (grad transfer btw) who has had major success at their next stop?

The vast majority are Jake Heaps type. What did Max Browne do at Pitt? Not much. Who was the DB that transferred from Bama? Anybody hear from him? No.

Am I supposed to be excited for no more Jack Brownsocks? So fucking what, he won't be around in '19 anyway.

This feels like the time I was supposed to be excited for HWSNBN after he got fired from ND. Seems like a whole lot of unnecessary dooging going on.





I like to doog it up as much as the next guy, but I fail to understand the excitement. Seems like far more transfers never do anything meaningful. I would love to be wrong.

Please to be explaining ....

    He's got talent, you can coach him up from there. One more year of college coaching under his belt. You can't coach Browning to have a better arm.

    To put it in poker terms for your degenerate mind. Would you rather have AK suited or 10/J off suit?

    It's just a numbers game is all it is. Get as much talent as you possibly can and whoever wins from there... congrats to them. That goes for every position.
    @Swaye true?

    Transfer QBs succeeding isn’t all that uncommon. Baker Mayfield and Cam Newton are two recent examples. Mayfield was the starter at TTech got hurt and then Wally Pipped by Mahomes then had l transfer to Okie.

    I thought Baker Mayfield wanted a scholly and TT told him to pound sand so he transferred.

    I could be wrong though.

    This is already clearly different from the Browne and Heaps situations. Eason has already started an entire season against SEC defenses. As a true freshman he threw for a 2:1 TD ratio. While his accuracy is a WIP, those are impressive stats for a guy who has only began his development as a college QB. Nothing about his first two years at UGA suggest he’s a bust, quite the opposite actually, and he was just the victim of shitty circumstances. He’s every bit the player we thought he was coming out of high school, and we have the added benefit of seeing him actually live up to the hype in year 1. If Eason isn’t our starter for 2019 and 2020, he either has a debilitating addiction to sorostitutes, or one of Yankoff/Sirmon is really fucking good.

    No way does he start in 2020. He either starts in 2019 & leaves for NFL, or gets passed in 2019 and grad transfers to WSU in 2020 &
    suffers multiple concussions.
